What to know about roller shutter repairs in Cumbria
Motor faults can be a failed motor, a tripped limit setting, a faulty key switch or a power issue, which is diagnosed on site. If repair is not economical, we give you a price for a replacement curtain or shutter so you can compare. After a repair, powered shutters are checked so the safety devices and limits work correctly.
We repair most makes and types, from small window shutters to industrial doors. Repeated faults are often caused by misaligned guides or an undersized motor, which we flag on the visit.
Options we can specify
- Safety checks after every repair
- Guide, bearing and end plate repairs
- Motor, limit and control faults
- Spring re-tensioning and replacement
- Key switch, remote and receiver repairs
- Curtains refitted into guides

Rules in England
Safety of powered shutters
Powered doors and shutters are treated as machinery. The installer commissions them with a risk assessment, safety devices where the risk calls for them and force checks to BS EN 12453, then hands over a declaration of conformity and maintenance instructions. In workplaces, the employer or whoever controls the premises must keep doors maintained and safe for staff and visitors.
Electrical work
Electric shutters are wired to BS 7671, the IET Wiring Regulations. In homes in England, new circuits are notifiable under Part P of the Building Regulations, so the work is done by a registered electrician who can self-certify it, or notified to building control.
